Re: ITP: nspeed -- Prints the currently incoming and outgoing traffic in kb/s of a NIC on the console, no more, no less
You are right. Currently it measures the network traffic over the period of 1 (one) second. See the TODO.Debian to learn that I plan to make it adjustable and more configurable ... > André Appel dijo [Sat, Dec 23, 2006 at 07:16:54PM +0100]: >> Package: wnpp >> Severity: wishlist >> Owner: Andre Appel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >> >> >> * Package name: nspeed >> Version : 1.0.0 >> Upstream Author : Andre Appel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >> * URL : http://nforcer.de/debian/nspeed/ >> * License : (GPL) >> Programming Lang: (bash) >> Description : Prints the currently incoming and outgoing traffic >> in >> kb/s of a NIC to the console >> >> >> nseepd is a shell script which prints the kb/s which are currently beeing received and transmitted by a NIC in a direct way only using simple shell commands.

Hi Joey, hi developers, although my nspeed is a pure shell script, it was not hard to implement the feature into "ifdata" of the moreutils package. Under http://nforcer.de/debian/ifdata-patch/ you find the new ifdata.c and the ifdata.diff to see what I've changed. Make sure you have some traffic and run ifdata -bips NIC (bips=bytes incoming per second) or ifdata -bops NIC (bops=bytes outgoing per second). Have fun and mention me :) Regards, André. > André Appel wrote: >> nseepd is a shell script which prints the kb/s which are currently >> beeing received and transmitted by a NIC in a direct way only using >> simple shell commands.
